Why is it so hard to find maternity clothes for small girls.

So today I am stuck wearing pre pregnancy pants from American eagle that when I sit down are way too tight around my pubic bone and thigh area.. I am so irritated by it so I tried finding maternity pants at lunch... Still too big... Like baggy crotch big but camel toe at the same time.... Ughhh I can find shirts all day long that fit so I don't need that... I need pants and its just not working out... Oh I'm 25w5d and weigh 125 (pre pregnancy 109) so I am basically stuffing myself in my pants. Sorry, had to vent. I started crying at kohls just cause I was so frustrated.

Oh I agree! I work at a hospital so I have to wear scrubs. Comfy, yes, but I haven't needed maternity style until last month and I refused to buy them when id only need them for 2 months tops. I took to wearing long, thin maternity shorts and a belly band under my scrubs. The belly band keeps my pants up (they are already a size small and normal too big on me) and the shirt to cover my popping out tummy. It gets really warm haha

I totally understand im 22wks today and pre preg i was 98lbs im 113 now but i have thin legs so its super hard to find maternity pants or jeans that fit right and comfy. I realized that victoria secret yoga pants are awesome they fit great and make my butt look great;)

Same here! I started off wearing that band to cover your zipper so I would just wear my jeans but leave them unbuttoned, then I started wearing dresses since it got warmer BUT I did find some pants at Ross! I found two of them! And my birthday just passed and one of my friends got me some maternity shorts and they fit nice! Idk where she got them at but I can try to figure out.. sorry so long.

Yeah I'm 37+4 and I have always just ended up buying medium sized sweatpants or yoga pants. I gave up trying to fit into maternity clothes. Only maternity tights have worked for me as far as bottoms. Im so sick of not getting to wear "flattering" clothes because nothing fits me right. Soon I get to go back to normal clothes! That's what I keep telling myself anyway lol
